Getting kissed at the Golden Gate Bridge


Not quite as romantic as you might have guessed, given the title. It was just daddy, asking me to get a college scholarship so he won't have to sell the house, and then trying to kiss up to me (literally) afterward

Making calls, wearing the shoes, sleeping on the job



Just plain lookin' cool



"Livin' in a baby's paradise" (aka my best Coolio impression)



Yummy yummy!



With daddy at Fenway



Lovin' the water

They call me and my mommy's clan the "beach babes" (Zuni Edgewater, my maternal clan in Navajo), and here I am walking as fast as I can around the perimeter of the little people's pool

At the Brewster Store


Ahhh...after mom and dad telling me about the Brewster General Store, I am finally in Cape Cod, at this 150 year old store with my family. I must say, this place lived up to they hype!

Three green ladies

Here I am with the grandmas...and yes, the color coordination is on purpose!




Ready, Set, Go baby!

Here, daddy is making sure that I don't drive out of control. I love driving, and I borrowed my little friend's car from down the street. He was kind enough to let me test out this blue machine for a few minutes. Zoom, Zoom!

Happy Birthday to me!

Here I am in my birthday dress, serving as a host for my neighbors, family and friends to thank them for their love during this first year o' mine

On Martha's Vineyard with my grandparents

An eco-friendly way to see the sights!

Aunt Tressie and me



Crazy Rick and me...

This is me showing Crazy Rick (an uncle from NC) where he missed a spot shaving his beard. Not to worry - I did it politely and with a smile so as not to offend him.

4th of July with the parents


Happy Interdependence Day everyone!!!!!!

Man, this game is boring. I'm outta here!

You call this a professional baseball game? I could show these players a thing or two about how baseball is meant to be played. Let's get going and find something a little more interesting to do, something that doesn't put me asleep!

At the table with the grandparents

Enjoying some vittles with grandma and grandpa who came to Albuquerque to visit me

If the shoe fits...


Showing off my style with these cool shoes, which are only slightly too big. That's my grandma Percy holding me.

Putting the dishes away



Let me outta here!

Trying to make a run for it, even though I can't run...seriously, these parents of mine are getting on my nerves, making all of these rules, telling me I have a curfew of midnight and stuff...please, someone out there, help me!


Introducing...

The roses....Nizhoni Rose and red-rose bush. Yes, I have no clothes on (what can I say, I was only 8 months here...give me a break)!




Feet meet water

Plain and simple, I love water! When I see water, I have to be in it. On this day, I let a group of visiting Cuban medical students see the Moenave springs, and I straddled behind to play in the water in the stream.

What does it taste like?

A little foot and toes action! Okay, so I was taking a taste-test. I was trying to figure out if toes taste like pickles, lemon, or salt. At this moment, I can't really tell which one. But I believe that I will be taking plenty more taste-tests soon to find out.

That's it....

I give up! I am taking a break, especially when I was being helped to walk around. I will just dig myself into the Mother Earth (I figure mom needs to some washing duties anyhow).

Future model, maybe?

Nizhoni (beautiful) attracks beauty. Posing for the camera, among the red-sandstones of Moenave, Arizona.

Finally meeting another uncle

This is my uncle Travis, Cayden's daddy! In Navajo, he is my yazh (my son).

Do we look alike??

This is my cousin brother Cayden Tracey, he is about 3 months older than me. This was our first meeting in Tuba City, with a few laughs and cries together.

Salud experience...

Edgewood Firestation really impressed me, with this bright yellow fire engine. Notice our silly faces, as we stand and sit near this huge truck with all our new friends.

Rolling in style...

Well, I drive a more expensive car than mom and dad. I have my wheels, a pink escalade, with music to bomp to. Clear the halls Albuquerque, here I come.

Pick us a winner!

So, we met up with the clown himself -Patch Adams (in red). We were instructed by Patch to pick your nose, instead of saying "cheese" for the camera. Here I decided to help mom pick her nose.

Playing with the big kids

My friend, the young Navajo woman- Eudora, is playing in the sand with daddy and I. We were really suppose to be listening to the 'music at the zoo'. We had our own adventure, a sandy beach effect, near the pond of the zoo.

I love riding....

Of my many rides, either in the stroller, the car, or the train, here I ride the camel with mommy. They made us take off our sandals, and let the guy in the cowboy hat tug us around. Giddy-up you four-legged creature!!
